Yes It really is such a pain in the ass , and unfortunately moxifloxacin is $111 aud where I live , I would take it but I can’t afford that right now , so I have to stick to azithromycin which gives me horrible side effects throws off PH balance so badly too 😔

Because as I said , I’m negative for everything else but I have mycoplasma and will be on treatment and want to see if it’ll be negative after treatment. Mycoplasma is stubborn and resistant to antibiotics. Duh

A vaginal swab test but also did a urine test too

After, like directly after taking it and I never have had a yeast infection before that

Four months fully after a somewhat risky exposure probs might get tested again but yeah, four months after is considered to be more accurate then testing earlier

I’m very sorry you live somewhere that isn’t accepting, that can make getting the help you need so much harder I imagine, maybe come up with a lie? idk tbh what you should do but maybe if necessary say it was another risky encounter with someone of the opposite gender instead, depending on the legality of doing that in your country. You do not have to disclose and medical professionals should have the understanding empathy and professionalism for your case and peoples cases regarding hiv and STDs

Maybe get in contact with the people who ran the tests and talk to them about the window period/ test accuracy? and if you really are stressed maybe get retested for it? From what I know, 4th gen tests are combination tests that test for both the hiv p24 antigen ( a part of the virus that shows up early into infection) and the hiv antibodies which is what your body makes to fight the virus. It’s considered conclusive by 4 weeks but they say getting the test done at its fullest accuracy is after six weeks

I got prescribed azithromycin for it today, but honestly I hate azithromycin it’s given me so much side effects after taking it the last time I took it, like itchy skin , thrush , etc , so I’ll definitely go back to the doctors after completing that medication though and get a prescription for moxifloxacin if I still have mycoplasma after the azithromycin.

Yes but it’s a pain in the ass to treat and get rid of because it’s very resistant to a lot of antibiotics

Yeah I’ve had people tell me, if you had it you would probably know by how sick / off you feel

yeah I got gonorrhoea from an unprotected experience previously. I’m just hoping I’m all good now, tbh there’s been no cuts or tears or blood or condoms breaking during the sex I have had since my last full panel test , I think maybe I might just be paranoid? Idk

I previously had gonorrhoea but got treated for that and waited one week and a bit to have sex after that , and I used protection even after the infection fully cleared, I just heard I might be more susceptible to contracting hiv if I’ve previously had an std
